[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;46757963]Jaws Unleashed was awful.[/QUOTE]
In the best kind of way.
He grabbed one shaped like a modern game case, I hope it's Jaws Unleashed.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;46758422]I think he already did that on James and Mike Mondays once.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, he did that once. I vaguely remember the shark flying several feet out of the water.
[QUOTE=bdd458;46757355]you mention AvP but not Alien: Isolation, for shame.[/QUOTE]
I'm sorry, I was just listing games that first came to mind. It's just unusual having a fantastic Alien game like Alien: Isolation.

New one's up! Anyone have an idea of what that thing at the end is?
No clue. It looks about the size of a 3DO's box... but the 3DO was good
[editline]21st December 2014[/editline]
Nope, that's got LJN's logo on it. Have fun with that one, AVGN. LJN and a box that big only means one thing: [sp]Video Art[/sp] I even faintly remember it

Whoops, late. Oh well.
Maybe AVGN should ditch the whole distant past thing and focus on games from 2 or more generations ago. He's have another 30 years of content from the PS2 alone.

WHY
i own the universal game, had it since i was kid
he left out the movie quiz minigame that racks up points super fast. i also remember backdraft and jaws being my favorite games on the disc and i don't remember having tons of trouble with ET.
i still have it somewhere, i can go look for it.

I think he should start to include the PS2/Dreamcast/Gamecube/Xbox generation a bit more, but not ditch the past games either, theres still alot of shit out there.
If he ditches the old games we don't get to see the nintoaster and the nintoaster is the shit
It's kind of strange that the gamecube era games are now old enough to be considered nostalgic.
Time flies
Oh god the 11th day video is 11 or 12 minutes long the next one will possibly be in the 20's or so which will be insane and a good send off to the last gift
It's the LJN Video Art so yeah he's gonna have fun and plenty of material with that

Either way, he already did the 3DO with the Plumbers don't wear ties video.
I wish he'd come up with more jokes
every episode is starting to blur together
makes a bunch of poo jokes, swears a ton, and then exaggerates about how bad the game is
I mean yeah he has tons of great content and did some pretty cool shit but it gets so fucking old.
the same thing happened to retsupurae imo, but they're way different

I think he's kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place, as with any big, OTT personality. He kind of has two options:
A: Stick with the same stuff, familiar ground so he knows he'll do well at that but some people are going to get tired of it.
B: Try and diversify but risk alienating his major audience.
I'm happy for him to do whatever honestly, James seems like such a fantastic guy and I love watching his videos. I think by this point, he mainly does this kind of thing just for a bit of fun.
the thing with the nerd to me is that you obviously can't expect him to be a constant over 8 years. he's totally different than what he was back in the day
if anything i think the presentation and production quality has increased exponentially and i'm consistently impressed at how sucked into an AVGN video i can be, especially considering that i've been watching since the Angry Nintendo Nerd days
I lost it when he was screaming at the LJN logo.

i think the issue is that these episodes are all coming out at once
up until now the episodes come out every so often so the joke is always relatively fresh. You see a new AVGN video, watch it, might go watch a few classics for laughs but you wouldn't watch many after that point until the next one
here we're getting one after the other, they're all really short with nothing interesting to say about them, sans a few (basically the last few) and its almost too much avgn

Eh, that isn't really a problem for me as long as he's not going over the same content.
the sound AVGN makes when he attempts tricky jumps or hit evasive enemies always makes me laugh
come on get him-OOOOOOOOoooo-!

the first episode I watched of AVGN I was amazed at how not only how informative he was, but how much of a good character he played.
Jontron does it far better, but far less. They're pretty much doing the same thing. AVGN Can easily do just as good as Jontron though, sometimes better. But he makes so much content that it can blur together.
[video=youtube;0fjE1A80w2s]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fjE1A80w2s[/video]
AVGN I think though has massively improved production quality. He's a great dude who has a great hobby and knows his audience and work very well.
The Universal Studios episode he just released actually wasn't bad at all, it actually almost pays a tribute to the old AVGN days with a straight forward review and funny jokes, As far as the game itself i'd say it's actually not bad at all, sure it has you going around picking up trash and wasting time but that's besides the point, You're ACTUALLY AT universal studios, exploring all the movie sets and ride minigames it has to offer, even if they are lackluster, although a few of them actually seemed really cool like that Back To The Future one with the Delorian chasing biff around that volcano area, that looks awesome an could even be it's own original game if done right, The jurassic park one was really cool also, the idea of a rail shooter gunning down dinosaurs, imagine if you could fire at a T-rex that'd be boss!

Final video has been posted.
Not on youtube yet.
I love how at the end, the Nerd [sp]broke character into James just to wish everybody a happy Christmas, before immediately returning to the Nerd for the last sentence.[/sp]
